Overwatch Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • GabetheGEN Gabriel Nunez (@GabetheGEN) reported

    Next up: Overwatch 2 and Diablo Immortal getting nominated at all. Are you serious? One game had a terrible launch and still has problems now (not to mention it killed off its better predecessor), and another game that really drives the Pay-to-Win scheme to a ridiculous level.

  • SweetiieYin Sweetie (@SweetiieYin) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Excuse me Overwatch, there’s a weird glitch where you can’t invite people to group or to play. I can’t nor my friends can join up after an invite.

  • Hasashi69 Dylan Hasashi | Island Hasashi (@Hasashi69) reported

    Overwatch: We should fix the matchmaking, it’s really bad and people are starting to hate playing the game. The patch: LET’S ADD AIM ASSIST FOR CONSOLE PLAYERS IN PC POOLS!

  • HUNGSUPPORTED 𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙣'𝙩 𝙜𝙚𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩! 🏳️‍⚧️ (@HUNGSUPPORTED) reported

    𝘿𝙄𝙎𝘾𝙊𝙍𝘿 𝙍𝙊𝙇𝙀𝙋𝙇𝘼𝙔 So I'm making a discord RP server for overwatch, now this will not be a primary lewd focus but nsfw channels will be made for such events the only issue is I need a hand setting it up, would anyone mind helping me?

  • KozzieTea Kozzie Tea (@KozzieTea) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hi why are you not addressing the issue with overwatch skins from the Origin edition. You have thousands of players reporting that all origins skins have not transfered. I am one of them. please fix this immediatetly. I have submitted tickets and no one is helping!

  • megatronOW mega ✰ (@megatronOW) reported

    @chrafllol @katrinaxvj @OverwatchNaeri true, but overwatch has a problem with ignoring the majority of the dab base and what they want

  • c3thulu Cthuluhoop (@c3thulu) reported

    Whatever ******** they did overwatch is broken

  • Alleyjawndro Alley (@Alleyjawndro) reported

    @TeamYouTube My YT handle is @alleyjawndro. Only 1 video that can be causing an issue: “10 of the Worst Overwatch League Plays of All Time.” Can I get any confirmation that privating this video will be enough? Need I delete it? I truly believe this is the only video in violation.

  • Laha1411 A:pe PM (@Laha1411) reported

    Look I need deadlines and fix the overwatch dating sim

  • kcflasherx kcflasherx ッ (@kcflasherx) reported

    Idk if this is just a lower elo thing but to the Overwatch players this applies to. Play what you're comfortable with, not what works for the enemy team. I swear mfs get **** on by a hero and instantly think that switching to said hero is gonna solve the problem

  • chrafllol chris (@chrafllol) reported

    @CyberOW_ It’s $10 for more skins than you’ll get in any battle pass in gaming rn. Like I said though, the quality of the stuff is subjective cuz the problem with Overwatch is that not a lot of people play everybody so ofc you’re not gonna like or use a skin for a character you don’t play

  • kisapniaq brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (@kisapniaq) reported

    when you crash in overwatch 2

  • lightningw0lf18 Aidan (@lightningw0lf18) reported

    @BlizzardCS invites on ps overwatch are not working. Can’t join my friend and they can’t join me. Anyway to fix this?

  • qian7412 hhh (@qian7412) reported

    @Samnesiaaa @OverwatchNaeri The same applies to the United States, whoever has a larger market share will have more influence. Every banknote is the same for all companies. unfortunately my overwatch account is gone, it contains all the items since the service was launched in 2016

  • zippyzillly zippyzill (@zippyzillly) reported

    Overwatch back at it again with broken crap. Updated the game and was welcomed with my heroes’ time played hours being broken. Everything else is working normal tho, and I have my stuff(thankfully) unlike other people when they updated… yikes. Get your crap together Blizzard.
